    i THINK B-HOP HAS A BETTER CHANCE AT BEATING LACY THAN JERMAIN TAYLOR.
    B-HOP WINS BY A SD BECAUSE HE WILL COUNTER ALL DAY WITH LACYS SLOPPY PUNCHES.

      Jeff Lacy is a guy who fights three minutes of a round at full speed...people talk about the Hopkins v. Tito fight like Nard was an active fighter and then he started to slow down...watch the first 5 or 6 rounds...he wasnt very active.

      He would die of exhaustion against Lacy and his counter right may land when thrown but I cant see it doing any damage.

      Lacy or Calzaghe would beat Bernard and I have had this opinion for at least the last three years, to big and to active.
      Dude dont get this Hopkins mixed up with that Hopkins. I can understand if you say certain things now but to say Hopkins couldnt keep pace at the time when he was fighting Tito is crazy. He changed his style in the Tito fight and has been the same way every since. If you watch all his fights before that including the one directly before that against Holmes, Hopkins was active the whole fight and fought non stop for 12 rounds and would bully guys

              Lacy would murder Hopkins, and i doubt Hopkins would change a habit of a life time and move up weight.

                Lacy would send Hopkins into his commatic, dramatic KO state in an oblivion!

                  Bernard Hopkins is too smart to take such a risk of a fight, again, Jeff Lacy is no Jermain Taylor.. if he needed money, the fight might make more sense, but Hopkins is smart, he's managed his money from the De La Hoya fight, is now in control of Golden Boy East (which i'm sure makes him $$), and can live comfortably the rest of his life.

                    Lmfao, this is hilarious.

                    The same people who now discredit Calzaghe's win over Lacy were the ones who were bigging him up to be god.

                      I'm genuinely quite concerned that some people are STILL hyping Lacy. Seriously guys, he hasn't got the instincts, skill and never will, jeez. He was so dramatically out classed against Calzaghe it was ridiculous, he wasn't and isn't on that level. Calzaghe beat Hops, so how the **** would a 1 dimensional, limited skilled 2 punch fighter beat Hops with extremely good defence.

                      Gobsmacked anyone would think this. Beggers belief. Really does put ones judgement into question.
